darknation Posted August 21, 2002 http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/2202298.stm Pot Noodle's latest advertisment just got gutfucked. Apparently you are no allowed to use the word 'slag', even after the 9pm watershed. Of course "fuck, shit, cunt, wanker , etc." are all totally acceptable in regular programming past that time. The ad was totaly brilliant BTW. 0 Share this post Link to post

Grazza Posted August 21, 2002 I'd ban it for advertising Pot Noodle. Slag: British word for slut. 0 Share this post Link to post
fraggle Posted August 21, 2002 Heh, I remember when Big Brother was on a few weeks back. They showed continuous footage of the big brother house on E4 but any profanity or nudity was censored. The sponsor adverts went along the lines of: "What has happened to the sound" ... "I guess they must be saying fuck and shit!" 0 Share this post Link to post
Sharessa Posted August 21, 2002 Heh...in America, I think Slag means waste from smelters. Either way, thats a pretty stupid word to used for a slogan. 0 Share this post Link to post

Spike Posted August 21, 2002 Heh. Tv is shit. You can swear on a soap, but not on an advert? Besides, the word 'slag' get's used every day by jilted ex-boyfriends. 0 Share this post Link to post
